Within the last century, humanity has faced horrible epidemics. One of the worst was a disease that is remembered as POLIO. Breathe, presents us with one family's journey through this disease. Robin Cavendish, an adventurer, traveled the world exploring everything that he could. In between some of these trips, he would meet someone special. This special someone would become much more than his wife. She became everything to him. When one day he finds himself unable to move, to him it's the end. Little did he know that to the rest of the world this would be a beginning. Robin was diagnosed with Polio that paralyzed him from the neck down. This adventuresome individual was losing his grip on life, in both the physical and emotional sense. Without his devoted bride, he may have done just that. Instead, with time, patience, and a zest for love... He/they became pioneers of the disabled. Proving that immobility was not an automatic death sentence for all involved. As well as encouraging those to reach for the stars. After all, life is what we make of it.
